Run through the field

Talk back loudlyShould be allowed toScary movies

Awful dreamsShout back angrilyShouldn’t be toldThink back toThose times

Regret doing/not doing sth

I Wanted Only the BestI Wanted Only the BestBaby,When you were a tiny baby crying

all night,I sang to you and stayed by your side.

When you were tired and hungry,I gave you food and warm arms to sleep in.

When you were two running through the field, I made sure you were safe and kept you from danger.

When you fell and hurt yourself , I gave you a hug and lifted you up.

When you were seven coughing badly,I said no ice-cream for you.

But you talked back loudly, “I should be allowed to eat some! Give it to me now!”

When you were nine watching scary movies, I said it’d give you awful dreams.

But you shouted back angrily, “I should be allowed to watch it! I’m not a baby!”

When you were a teen going out with friends,I said “Please be back by ten!”

But you talked back again— “I should not be told what to do! I’m seventeen now!”

Now you are an adult,thinking back to those times,you coughed for days after eating that ice-cream and had scray dreams after watching that film. You were late for school from staying out past ten.

Do you know that, baby,mom knows best,and for you I wanted only the

best.
